You're a high performer in big law, government work, consulting, etc. used to excelling under pressure. Over time, the weight feels different; little things now spark self-blame or sadness you can't quite shake. Your mind won't quiet down with looping thoughts, sleepless nights, a creeping sense you're failing while everyone else has it together. You're exhausted from holding it all together, and it's starting to cost you focus, confidence, and joy. You don't need to keep white-knuckling through this and fall into burnout.
The good news is that you can find peace and focus. Imagine not being sent into a tailspin by a new demand, but instead handling it with calm and confidence. You can better understand your emotional reactions to stress and use the tools you need to get through challenging situations. Imagine learning to trust yourself and letting go of your inner critic.
I provide a supportive space to process emotions, build effective coping skills, and create a plan to reconnect with what matters most. I offer online and in-person counseling to help you find renewed joy, feel less alone, and recognize your inner strength. Reach out today to get started.

Each person is unique; I provide a mix of approaches tailored to the specific needs of each client. I encourage their feedback and adjust my approach for what best suits each individual. I often like to pair an evidence-based, skills approach to give clients new tools to tackle their problems, while also doing deeper work that gives clients the space to unburden themselves and feel understood.
